Shokudo-Miami

Came here for Valentine's Day and the food was so so good, we end up ordering it regularly in our favorite takeout rotation. I absolutely love their orange chicken. One of the best I've had. The sauce is so light yet packed with tangy flavor. The chicken is perfectly crunchy with generous full chunks of white meat. The chicken to breading ratio is perfect. Have yet to find a place I like more for orange chicken. Also a must is the goyzas. The service was great and the atmosphere was lovely for our date. Saw many couples there.

This is the third time I've been here. The last two times were a while back, but I remember enjoying them so I was excited to try this place again! Unfortunately I have mixed feelings on this third visit. First the positive....Location is great, inside of the restaurant is really pretty. Loved the look and ambiance. The server was very nice although the service was slow. The menu looked exciting; a good amount of items. Everyone in my party found something. Now for the not so great... the items all came out at random times. I know this is a new thing for restaurants to serve as items come out, but I don't love it. I ordered the ahi tuna poke for my app. Was very good. No complaints with this dish. Others for soups and were very happy. For my main course I had the Java steak. The steak was flavorful and cooked well. However the cilantro rice was not great, the fried onions were not seasoned and looked unappealing. There was a garnish of avocado and tomato but it didn't go well with the steak. The rest of my party had mixed reviews as well. Crab fried rice was not good, but sushi was great!I'm not sure I would come back unless I was just wanting sushi. A little disappointed.

We've been dinning here since they started 12 years ago. Still today they keep the same quality, consistency and great service. Ask for Carlos or Uros they will make sure you get the best experience.

One of the best hidden gems in Miami! It's a bit off the beaten path, so there's not so many people and crowds. The food is out of this world.

This restaurant has become a second home for me! The food and staff are amazing. It's the perfect place to grab a nice cocktail or complete meal after a long day at work. Thank you Vivi, Carlos, and the entire Shokudo team for delivering an incredible experience consistently.

This place is in a quiet part of Design District, but it's on a main street and impossible to miss. I stumbled upon this spot on a rainy day and it was honestly one of the best Thai/Japanese meals I've had in a really really long time. The service was great, everything was efficient and the food came out fairly quickly. I was craving Ramen as well as some fried rice with red curry and wowww. 10/10 on ALL the food. The ramen, out of the world!! The flavor was amazing, the broth, the ground chicken, delicious. And the red curry with the fried rice was also perfect. Fulfilled all my cravings. The sushi was a little plain, but I had picked a very simple tuna sushi, so that's on me. Other than that, It was soul comforting food. I can't wait to come back and try some different sushi and the other ramens.

This place doesn't get enough credit! The food is delicious and the staff is always so welcoming. I always wonder why it's not busier but I'm selfishly glad that I can always get a reservation.Definitely save room for dessert!

When World Resources was on Lincoln Road, the food and service was predictably 5/5 stars. In the 11+ years since relocating to Buena Vista, there have been modifications to the staff and menu, but the food and service remains 5/5.On the eve of Art Basel 2023, I brought family and friends for dinner. A scrutinizing bunch that has dined in some of the best kitchens of NY and top spots in the US and around the globe. And, composed of home chefs with both skills and palates for seasoning and preparation. They know food and expect proper service.On arrival our reservation for 5 was instantly honored. And, with equal speed, the owner, Yoko, took drink and appetizer orders. After blinking twice, our orders appeared. Tom Yum soups, salads, gyoza, Miso, grilled shishito peppers, eda mame, crunchy sushi Japanese eggplant. All disappearing with nods of approval accompanied by happy eating sounds. FYI - the ginger dressing for the salad should be bottled for mass consumption. AND, If you haven't tried Shokudo's crunchy sushi, it's a treat to rival potato chips and pistachios - if you're not dining alone, ask for two orders - you cannot eat just one! Likewise, the soups disappeared, only to be replaced by repeat orders!Being a Tuesday, we took advantage of the $10 roll specials. These were not the less expensive rolls, but the top 10 favorites - Dragon, Spicy Tuna, Samurai, Hamachi Jalapeño, etc etc. Deep steaming bowls of Ramen, brightly garnished with egg, mushroom, radish, nori, were slurped into oblivion. The broth rendered and strained to a silky finish and partnered with noodles of perfect toothy texture. Desserts polished a perfect meal. We ordered the Lady M layered crepe cakes and were treated to Chef Joe's delicious baked green tea crumbles. Start to finish, this exacting bunch was impressed. And, Yoko was cordial and professional, checking on every table while taking orders and expediting delivery. Shokudo is the standard for quality dining in Miami. Finally, the quality to cost ratio is beyond 5 stars. The final bill being so reasonable, that the unanimous departing comment getting into the car was "when are we coming back?!"

Decent happy hour but not really much of a value. We had a large group and just ordered a bunch of items. Had a bite or two of a lot of different items and they were mostly pretty tasty. Just not that cheap per dish. The restaurant was pretty empty for most of the evening so that was kind of a red flag but we had a good time. Chocold Fashioned: SkipIt wasn't bad but it's not really a combination that is worth having. It's a more funky and decadent old fashioned from the chocolate and coffee but nothing that actually improves the drink. Food: 7/10 Service: 7/10 Atmosphere: 6/10 Value: 5/10
